Buying cocaine in the UK can indirectly funding Russian arms factories, according to the National Crime Agency (NCA).
The NCA said a man linked to a Russian-led money-laundering network operating in the UK had bought a bank in Kyrgyzstan which was used to make payments on behalf of the Russian war machine.
The agency is trying to disrupt the network from top to bottom, even putting adverts in UK motorway service station toilets to warn couriers carrying cash for the money-launderers of the lengthy jail sentences they face, as part of an investigation called Operation Destabilise.
